Article Synopsis
- - The study examined two needle puncture methods in children with totally implantable venous access devices (TIVAD) to see which method better manages pain and catheter functionality.
- - A total of 110 children, who had TIVAD implanted for medical conditions, were split into two groups; one group used a painless surround puncture method with anesthesia, while the other used the traditional method.
- - Results showed that the experimental group experienced less pain, needed less sealing fluid, and had a significantly lower rate of catheter blockage compared to the control group, indicating the effectiveness of the painless method.

Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates effective strategies for managing infections in infants with short bowel syndrome and solid tumors treated with totally implantable venous access ports (TIVAPs).
- - Out of 210 children treated with TIVAPs, eight diagnosed with catheter-related bloodstream infections were treated using antibiotic lock therapy (ALT) and cluster nursing management, resulting in successful outcomes for most.
- - The combination of ALT and cluster nursing not only improved healing times but also helped prevent complications, highlighting its clinical significance for patient care in these cases.
